If possible, could someone please test the unofficial version of
boot-floppies 2.2.25? This version is only different in that it is
using kernel 2.2.19 for i386. Since the kernel changed, what I need
is for someone to test *every* one of the 4 flavors, ensuring that the
modules all work (depmod

I'm sure you'll find your results to be the same.

anyone here on debian-boot can take a whack at it I would appreciate it.

No I get the same thing. This is definately blocking.
I think I may have to turn off i18n to get this working again. Or else
is there any fix for this? Wasn't this the libnewt issue?

I'd like to remind all the hackers here that it is *critical* to file
RC bugs against broken stuff in base which isn't working the way it
should.
Unfortunately we are front line testers for the base system since no
one in the real work really runs base-only systems. There is a *lot*

As you may know, at this point, boot-floppies itself is not yet
alpha-ready. However, I do think we can proceeding on significant
testing of the base system itself, apart from the boot-floppies.
'base', as you may know, is the set of packages or even partial
packages built by the boot-floppies.
